Oh holy P,

thanx for the post!
You're right that thing looks GREAT.
It has that nice sharp sound I love so much too.
I must have played that vid 3 times already

But like has been said over and over
Damn that's loud!
I think it's safe to say that boom tubes are NOT a replacement for a muffler on a street car.

When you said, "that's where they seem to make a difference."
What were you basing that on?

I would safely assume, that if You have atleast 2 1/2 inch away from body, or body kit, its safe to assume it wont melt. Plus ls engine doesnt generate that much exhaust as NASCAR.

Did you live under power lines as a kid in a house with Lead Paint?
You just quoted and responded to a post from 2006
I think 14+ years later they probably have it figured out...they're not sitting by the computer hoping some genius likes you comes along to share their insight after 14 years.

Damn, somebody got triggered.
Hey Maroon, is there a backstory here, like he ran over your cat or ran away with your ex?
Or is this normally all it takes to make you start spewing insults?
